Basic demographic data for Far Northeast and Southeast is shown in Table 17.1. In 2000, the area had a population of 73,800, or about 13 percent of the city's total. Population in the area has been declining for over 40 years, although the decline was not as rapid in the 1990s as it was in the 1970s and 80s. In 2005, the population is estimated to be 69,900. Average household size in 2005 was 2.33, which was higher than the citywide average of 2.14. However, average household size has been dropping in Far Northeast and Southeast as it has in other neighborhoods across the city. This trend may reverse in the coming years as former public housing complexes are replaced by new single family homes and townhomes, and as infill development takes places on vacant land. 1703.1
